“Why legislators outside the city of New York get to decide in our traffic policies is one of the more irrational things that came out of the financial calamity that the city went through back in the 70s,” Bloomberg said to reporters, including 1010 WINS’ Stan Brooks.

The mayor also named names of who he said is blocking approval of the cameras.

“Sen. Dean Skelos or Marty Golden or Simcha Felder, who are certainly most responsible,” Bloomberg said.

Bloomberg urged parents who’ve lost children in traffic accidents to call those state senators to urge them to act.

“So that the parents can know exactly who’s to blame,” said the mayor.

Bloomberg also blasted the state legislature for tacking on a surcharge to New York City speeding tickets and taking the revenue, but failing to vote for speed cameras.
